Micro 3v3 -Under-6
Born on or after January 1, 2003.
Micro3v3 is the beginning of our traditional House League programs. Players get two nights per week of soccer - a practice night, and a game night. Teams are coed and include approximately 7 players per roster. The game is played with three players per team on a small pitch. There are no goalkeepers. All players are encouraged to touch the ball as often as possible, to maintain possesion, and to use 'space'. Coaches act as on-field instructors and referees - remembering that during game play the focus is to let them play and have fun. The flow of the game should not be continuously stopped unless there is a significant call to be made. Equal playing time for all players, regardless of ability, is mandatory.
The program runs on Tuesday and Thursday nights beginning May 19 to August 27. One night is designated for practices, the other is for games. There will be two sessions per night. Teams will alternate start times at 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM as per schedule.
Cost is $150.00 per player.
